1953 Chevrolet 3100.. 1953 CHEVY 3100 Deluxe Half-Ton Pickup with Five Window Option. The truck is Deep Burgundy with a Gray interior. This rare Classic Pickup underwent an Off-Frame Restoration, six years ago by the experienced car restorer I bought the truck from, including the exterior, interior, chrome, bed & mechanics. He installed a newly rebuilt 6-cylinder 235 cubic inch displacement engine which has only 1100 miles on it (new speedometer shows 610 miles driven). It has a 3 speed "3 on the tree" transmission, chrome valve and air filter covers, manual choke, amber fog lamps, parking lights, working vent windows, floor mats, full instrumentation, owners manual, floor mounted step button starter, new dual side view chrome exterior mirrors, turn signals, polished aluminum heavy duty “Bow Tie” step plates on the running boards which match the sculpted “Bow Tie” polished aluminum heavy duty bed, 4 whitewall All-Season Steel Belted Radial Tires with lots of tread left and filled with nitrogen. In addition the truck has a fully carpeted cab, silver-grey front & rear bumpers and grill, dual rear tail lights and a “Chevrolet” scripted rear tailgate. The electric system is upgraded to 12-Volts for improved power and reliability. In the past year I rebuilt the carburetor, installed a new fuel pump and sending unit, flushed and cleaned the fuel lines, rebuilt the brakes and master cylinder including the parking brake, tightened and replaced the steering king pins and tie rod ends, replaced the outer tie rod ends and repacked and adjusted the front wheel bearings, replaced all shocks, rebuilt the cab heating system and installed new door Hardware and window risers. In September 2012 the distributor cap, rotor, spark plugs, wires, points and condenser were replaced. The truck has been garaged and protected from the elements. The truck also has optional fender skirts that can be added to give the rear wheels an“extra touch of class.” The three-owner truck is of Collector Quality Restored Classic Condition. It starts readily, runs strong and shifts well. Note: The manual throttle has been disconnected and the horn is activated by a lever under the steering wheel. Please review the photos carefully to view the condition of the body finish. You may contact me at: rudolph912@gmail.com and I will provide you will my phone number at that time for any additional information. Note that the buyer is responsible for shipping and handling of this vehicle. |

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series
Thu, 31 Oct 2013During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
